Proto probably isn't tcp or udp. Looks like you missed that on the cut and paste as it should be between "PROTO=" and "24.69.13.250:8". Look at /etc/protocols to figure out what proto it is. ciao, der.hans -- # der.hans@LuftHans.com home.pages.de/~lufthans/ www.Opnix.com # A Polish friend of mine got an offer for a free account from AOL.
